So as the title describes my really basic question for intelij IDEA. When I want to create a new folder/directory in the structure window, it doesn't show the option in the dropdown when I right click and go to "New". Any idea what the problem is? enter image description here Thanks!

intellij-idea directory java

Its called Package in intellij. Outside of java (the package keyword), package, folder, and directory all mean the same thing. A place to hold other packages/folders/directories/ and files in.

Edit: intellij also uses Directory. (it seems by default) Although i'm guessing you were creating a package/folder/directory already somewhere inside of a directory named java. Inside here it will be called Package.
